q^{\uparrow}(t) =  f \, q^{\downarrow}(t)  - \tau \cdot \frac{ d q^{\uparrow}}{ dt }  - \beta \cdot \frac{d p_{wf}}{dt}

average surface production per well

bodyq^{\downarrow}(t)

average surface injection per well

LaTeX Math Inline
bodyp_{wf}(t)

average bottomhole pressure in producers

body\tau

time-measure constant, related to well productivity

LaTeX Math Inline
body\beta

storage-measure constant, related to dynamic drainage volume and total compressibility


The

drainable reservoir volume

Total formation compressibility is a linear sum of reservoir/fluid components:

c_t = c_r +  s_w c_w + s_o  c_w + s_g c_g

where

titleDerivation

The first assumption of CRM is that productivity index of producers stays constant in time:

LaTeX Math Block
anchorJ
alignmentleft
J = \frac{q_{\uparrow}(t)}{p_r(t) - p_{wf}(t)} = \rm const

which can be re-written as explicit formula for formation pressure:

LaTeX Math Block
anchorp_r
alignmentleft
p_r(t) = p_{wf}(t) + J^{-1} q_{\uparrow}(t)


The second assumption is that drainage volume of producers-injectors system is finite and constant in time:

LaTeX Math Block
anchor1
alignmentleft
V_\phi = V_r \phi = \rm const


The third assumption is that total formation-fluid compressibility stays constant in time:

LaTeX Math Block
anchorct
alignmentleft
c_t \equiv \frac{1}{V_{\phi}} \cdot \frac{dV_{\phi}}{dp} = \rm const

which can be easily integrated:

LaTeX Math Block
anchor4XNCY
alignmentleft
V_{\phi}(t) =V^\circ_{\phi} \cdot \exp \big[ - c_t \cdot  [p_i - p_r(t)] \big]

where

LaTeX Math Inline
bodyp_i
is field-average initial formation pressure,
LaTeX Math Inline
bodyV^\circ_{\phi}
is initial drainage volume,


LaTeX Math Inline
bodyp_r(t)
– field-average formation pressure at time moment
LaTeX Math Inline
bodyt
,

LaTeX Math Inline
bodyV_{\phi}(t)
is drainage volume at time moment
LaTeX Math Inline
bodyt
.


Equation

LaTeX Math Block Reference
anchorct
can be rewritten as:

LaTeX Math Block
anchordVphi
alignmentleft
dV_{\phi} = c_t \, V_{\phi} \, dp


The dynamic variations in drainage volume

LaTeX Math Inline
bodydV_{\phi}
are due to production/injection:

LaTeX Math Block
anchor4XNCY
alignmentleft
dV_{\phi}= \int_0^t q_{\uparrow}(\tau) d\tau - f \int_0^t q_{\downarrow}(\tau) d\tau

and leading to corresponding formation pressure variation:

LaTeX Math Block
anchor4XNCY
alignmentleft
dp = p_i - p_r(t)

thus making

LaTeX Math Block Reference
anchordVphi
become:

LaTeX Math Block
anchor4XNCY
alignmentleft
\int_0^t q_{\uparrow}(\tau) d\tau - f \int_0^t q_{\downarrow}(\tau) d\tau = c_t \, V_\phi \, [p_i - p_r(t)]

and differentiated

LaTeX Math Block
anchor4XNCY
alignmentleft
q_{\uparrow}(\tau)  = f q_{\downarrow}(\tau)  - c_t \, V_\phi \, \frac{d p_r(t)}{d t}

and substituting

LaTeX Math Inline
bodyp_r(t)
from productivity equation
LaTeX Math Block Reference
anchorp_r
:

LaTeX Math Block
anchor4XNCY
alignmentleft
q_{\uparrow}(\tau)  = f q_{\downarrow}(\tau)  - c_t \, V_\phi \, \bigg[ \frac{d p_{wf}(t)}{d t} + J^{-1} \frac{d q_{\uparrow}}{d t} \bigg]

which leads to
